This 6-year-old cutie is named Peaches! She was surrendered by her elderly owner after the owner became unable to care for her. Although we know that Peaches was loved, she was overfed and has become significantly overweight. Peaches weighs 18 pounds and needs to shed quite a few pounds, which will be important for her future health and well-being. Gradually increasing exercise and providing a healthy diet is a great start. No people food please!

Peaches tends to be quiet and well mannered. She will make a great smaller companion for someone who is looking for an easygoing pet. She is accustomed to living with adults, so placement with children should be with those who are over 12 years of age. She is compatible with both dogs and cats. Are you interested in helping Peaches be the best dog that she can be? If so, she would love to meet you!

Come to Homeward Pet to meet Peaches! We’re located at 13132 NE 177th Place in Woodinville. Our shelter is open between 12 and 6 p.m., Wednesday through Sunday. See all our adoptable dogs, cats, kittens and puppies at www.homewardpet.org. February marks Homeward Pet’s 22nd year of helping homeless animals through rescue, shelter and adoption! We’re celebrating with an adoption event on Wednesday, February 22. Adoption fees will be discounted to $22 all day. Visit www.homewardpet.org for more information.
